Synopsis

What do you do when you are a god – but powerless and unable to prevent one of your favourite species from their insatiable, accelerating death wish? Do you try to shout louder and more insistently, or instead reinvent yourself as a troubadour of romantic ruin? Such are the dilemmas posed by Rishi Dastidar in his third poetry collection Neptune's Projects, a reshaping of mythology for the climate crisis era which gives bold consideration to the stark choices we face.
A post-apocalyptic jig and reel, these poems are compelling, deadpan yarns of the sea, full of both fury and fun. In Neptune's Projects the end of humanity is made wry, thrilling – and alive.

    Bright Water is an illustrated modern fairy tale, a mythopoetic, autofictional narrative. Part spirit memoir, part origin myth, Bright Water weaves personal, ancestral, and imagined histories through my queer and indigenous lens. 
The book is illustrated with my off-the-canvas works, spanning ceramics, textiles, and sculpture, including three bodies of work: Cinderella Far East ceramics, Virgin Mermaid wearable art, and QUAI THAI sculptures. Bright Water is my salvaged stream of consciousness, the river of thoughts within me, and the meaning of my name… 
For Someone who has no mother or father, I do have a name. 
It was given to me by the song of the past— 
Carried to me by the river, 
Hà Minh.
